  • well what had happened was, I fell asleep trying to upload more. here's the rest. I HOPE THEY'RE UP TO YOUR EXPECTATIONS.

    deleted the antenna for optimal race weight and aerodynamics







    primer was laid upon ye olde tank device (actually after further review, this was the rattle can primer after sanding the whole car and before putting actual primer on with a gun. it did get a legit coat of primer before i painted it. )





    and you've seen this one, but this is just base color



    DEN I PUT DAT CLUUR ALL UP ON IT



    there was an assload of wetsanding, followed by reflection pictures while i nursed my bleeding fingertips.







    then I took it home under the cover of the night to re assemble and finish buff it with meguiars m105 and m205. they were expensive as shit but are working well. sucks to roll hard.





    coming out pretty even and reflecty



    then I put the euro front end on. took all of 5 minutes





    then I rolled it up onto a ramp to fit a jack under it so that i could put in the fender trim and put the wheels on and such



    then threw on the wheels

    • def met my expectations and you deserve a round of applause...that color is insane!

      the amount of dedication you put into your builds is incredible and just when I think you can't top your last effort, you come back and post some beauty like this!!!

      Well done!
